It has been an exciting few weeks here at Three Paws. Gus and I attended the Anderson County Animal Shelter Advisory Committee at the courthouse on October 27, 2026 to stay update the counties progress with creating a better shelter for our community.
Gus also attended the Friends of the Anderson County Animal Shelter interest meeting on November 4th. Our current shelter is 100% ran by the municipality but is exploring a partnership with a non-profit. Both Campbell County and Blount County have implemented similar models with relative success. I am skeptical because I have closely follow the shenanigans of the shelter and the current Major and frankly, I have been shocked by the ridiculousness. More to come on that!
On a more positive note, we currently have a foster named Nico who is settling into life here with our family as we take some time and find his fur-ever family. Nico is approximately 18 months old and is a black beauty! He is a very energetic handsome doggo. Since he has been in our care he has received medical care for his ears, been neutered, and has been groomed. He is a designer breed – half sharpei, half cocker spaniel and will require regular grooming. If you have interest in Nico, or know a family that does, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Much love,
Wendy
